What good is knowing the name of a merchant if you don't know how they got the product?

After MAPP Trap finds, logs and creates watermarked images of violations and violators, we help you to figure out who those sellers really are. Our users benefit from our sophisticated research and investigative techniques, databases, algorithms and trained skip-tracers. Anyone can monitor, but for us, identifying resellers is the top priority.

So you've got the proof and you know who the resellers really are. Now what? Creating, sending and tracking emails manually takes a great deal of time. But if you don't enforce consistently and effectively, what's the point of monitoring and identifying your resellers? Our Automated Enforcement Wizard makes getting rid of unauthorized 3P sellers a simple task.

"Our time dedicated to enforcing MAP has literally been cut in half since we migrated from a manual process to the automated process and we have gained more control of the pricing of our products."

Ciara Rossum, MAP Enforcement Manager, Roommates

This saves us time, money and most of all, helps us protect our brand and our marketplace.”

"We have worked with a number of brand protection services, and none of them have revealed as many unknown sellers as MAPP Trap. MAPP Trap offers an online database that is both comprehensive and user friendly. Their weekly MAPP reports make it easy to store seller information, and their staff is fantastic! I highly recommend this service."

MAPP Trap is the perfect solution for Manufacturers, Wholesalers, Distributors and even eCommerce Merchants

The internet is a powerful tool for increasing sales and visibility. Unfortunately, its power can also cause hyper-discounting, over-distribution and brand commoditization. Any one of those things can destroy your brand. Don't let that happen!

Amazon, eBay, Google Shopping and others have disrupted the way you do business. So whether you have a minimum advertised pricing (MAP) policy, an authorized re-seller policy, an IP policy, or just want to know what's happening online, you need to monitor and identify who's selling them - and at what price.

When you monitor, you'll discover that online sellers frequently create store names that you've never heard of. They do this intentionally so you don't know their true identity. MAPP Trap identification helps you to find out who they really are so that you know how they got your product.

Online sellers create product listings a million different ways. They use old images, terrible copy and even create multiple listings of the same product. This causes consumer confusion that hurts your brand's messaging. MAPP Trap's time-stamped images of your product listings shows you what needs to be fixed.
